New Cards

Hello, I'm sorry but I have been neglecting my blog again. Here a few of my recent cards, which I really enjoyed making. These have all been added as samples for my card buffets. I try to have a variety of styles so my customers have a good choice of cards to make.

"Urban" Blog Hop

Welcome to our blog hop, where we are showcasing the Urban Paper Pack, if you have arrived here from Maz Wood's blog  you are in the right place if you arrived here by chance I hope you enjoy the hop. The Urban papers are very versatile, the colours are quite masculine but these papers can be used for all sorts of layouts.

I have created an Easter layout, quite often Easter layouts are done using pastel colours mostly because in the Northern hemisphere it is spring at Easter but I thought the Urban paper pack would work really well.  I used layout 7 from Make It From Your Heart Volume One as my inspiration for this layout. The Easter bunny and flower stamp sadly are no longer available, the Artbooking Cricut cartridge was used to cut Happy Easter and the book page. The stamp set that comes with the Artbooking Cricut cartridge has the lined page stamp as well. I used the Shin Han markers to colour the flowers and the Easter bunny. There is always an egg hunt for the kids at our family Easter get together and getting a good photo of all the kids with their Easter baskets is always a challenge.

To continue the hop click here to go to Mez's Craft Room to see how she has used this great paper pack, I am sure you are getting lots wonderful ideas. We all love receiving your comments so please leave a comment.

Card Buffet

Sorry that I have been missing for a while, but it has been quite busy at work and I have had to work extra hours, plus I went away for a week during October consequently my blog has suffered.

Have you heard of a card buffet? What is a card buffet I hear you ask, it is a workshop where you have the opportunity to feast on an array of cards that you can create. For this workshop I have baskets with kits all prepared for you to make up to 6 different cards all you need to do is stamp the images and then put the card together. I love giving and receiving hand made cards. Here are a few samples from this month's Christmas Card Buffet. If you are interested in coming along to one of these workshops please let me know.
